Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have been diagnosed with a cyst in my right ovary. I assume I will need surgery, but I m only 34 and concerned about fertility for the future. complex mass lesion in the right ovary with a large septated cyst 6cm diameter. Septations are hypervascular. There is a mural nodular component. Can you help explain what all of this means?
This is indicating ovarian cysts which are common and may be single, multiple or may occur as a part of polycystic ovarian syndrome. At this point there is no need to be worried but further steps are required to ruled out malignancy completely. It means that CT scan or diagnostic laparoscopy should be done to evaluate it more accurately. Generally, cysts should be managed surgically i cysts are larger than 5cm, bleeding cysts, torsioned or ruptured and it means that cysts became complicated and may cause specific pain.
Also, if there is polycystic syndrome as underlying cause then hormonal therapy is indicated. Pain is usually placed deep in pelvis on affected side and may be associated with nausea and fever. I am sure that this will be just a benign cyst at the end but these further steps are required to ease your minds.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Iven Romic Rommstein, General Surgeon
